Lucky 13

13 days out of the pond and the first day that Cha Cha is no longer floating sideways or belly up! I’m working on keeping the water clean and minimizing stress. It’s possible the medicine was creating stress since some black spots have appeared. I don’t think it’s a bacteria infection and one website said these spots can indicate healing and will fade. Let’s hope that’s true.

About me…

I grew up in Southern California and graduated from the United States Military Academy (West Point) in 1982. I was commissioned a military intelligence officer and served with XVIII ABN Corps (Fort Bragg, NC), 82d ABN Div (Fort Bragg, NC) and 42d FA Bde (Germany). I hold a master's degree in early childhood special education and an administrative endorsement in educational supervision.

I moved to Minnesota in 2010 and married a man who happens to enjoy digging holes and constructing waterfalls. I envision that every spring and summer will be spent puttering around a koi pond. Aside from koi, I enjoy starting random hobbies (trapeze lessons, pottery, sumi-e), gardening, reading a good book, drinking tea and a thousand other things that won't fit into this text box.
